Previous thread: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/27952511/

You are Gertrude Pool, Sophomore Class President and new commander of Lafayette Girls Academy’s revived Tankery Team.

You wake up on Kitten’s floor in her dorm. Yesterday was spent raising a little under 2k in dollars for your team, recruiting a bunch of pilots, having some dinner, and in general you’re now known as Lafayette’s resident Tankery Team Commander. Oh yeah, and Kitten got some new underwear.

And it was the cutest thing you’ve seen this side of the Atlantic.

You push the extra covers off of yourself and head for the shower. Time to figure out what to do today.

> Panzerjäger: Find Lafayette Girls Academy’s 8 Tanks. (6/8)

After a nice hot shower, you remember that are still 2 tanks below deck that need finding. It would be a good excuse to visit Lafayette’s museum area too. Gotta keep them priorities straight.

Kitten’s still asleep, might as well let her lie after yesterday.

You exit her dorm then move up to yours for breakfast when your phone rings.

“Hey, Dory. What’s up?”

“Just letting you know that Panther we found is above deck now. It’s functional but there’s a couple of issues with it.”

> TANK UNLOCKED: PANTHER AUSF. D (VINTAGE)

You nod. A Panther tank. Awesome. “Great, you bringing it round the sports warehouse?”

“Yeah, but if you want, we can show you how it runs. Or crawls at this pace.”

Go see the Panther?

> Yes
> No
>>
>>27972195
No, tell her we believe her that it sucks and we'll try and fix it before we use it.
>>
>>27972195

Find the other tanks now
>>
>>27972195
Send Kitten over, she knows more about tanks than we do
>>
>>27972195
>No
"I'll take your word for it, also I know you guys are busy but can you spare one of you to give us a hand looking for the other two missing tanks below deck?"
>>
I'd like to talk a little shop if that's ok with people.

Looking at the crew lists and tanks we have, I've come up with a list.

We're obviously in the Sherman

I think the Sewing club will be best in the Stuart, as they only have 3 people.

I'd put the freshmen in the Churchill, the Poles in the KV-1S and the airplane club in the Panther if we can get it working at anything near spec.

Thoughts?

To meta?
>>
>>27972195
>No
Send our Kitty to go look and let's hunt.
>>
>>27972280
I want the airplane crew to handle the Stuart. but other then that sure.

Also send Kittain to look at the Panther
>>
>>27972280
I disagree, we should use one of the heavy tank, the KV-1S would likely be the best choice at the moment, I'm a fan of the Churchill series but lets face it it's too slow.
>>
> No

“No thanks, I’ll take your word for it. I gotta go find the last two tanks for the team below deck. I imagine you’d be willing to help?”

“Sorry, but our shifts start at 9 sharp. You might be able to ask other Navy kids for directions but we’re gonna be real busy.” A bang erupts out of the cellphone.

“What was that?”

“Oh, that was the engine, it just burst into flames again. Anyway, take care of yourself, Gertrude.”

“Alright, thanks anyway, Dory.”

You hang up.

It occurs to you now that you’re pretty much going alone at this rate. The day before school, nearly all students are probably rushing for school supplies or getting their summer projects done at the last minute. Of course, it wouldn’t hurt to ask for help.

> Go alone?

>>
>>27972405
>>27972430
> Ask for help?

You quickly dial up Ramirez.

“Hey, Ramirez. You mind helping me look for some tanks?”

“Sure. Come pick me up at my dorm.”

You quickly run down over to Ramirez’s dorm. Not too far, and hopefully she’s already got some breakfast planned out. You stop outside her door and knock.

She answers, already clad in her school uniform. She tosses you an apple which you instinctively catch. “Breakfast.”

You nod. “Thanks.”

“So where are we going first, Pres?”

> Head to the Museum section. Time for dat background.

The Museum may have info on the tonks, but we could do some looking at first.
>>
> Go straight to the Command tower. Maybe a tank is somewhere buried underneath red tape.

“Let’s head for the Command tower. We’ll probably find something there the Navy Kids didn’t.”

Ramirez nods. “After you.”

“Oh, and call up Nancy and Lisa, have them meet us at the Museum around lunch time.”

Ramirez nods. “Of course.”

Time to head for the Command tower then. The two of you start walking down the block. You’re confident that somewhere lying in all of those mismatched files, archives, and pencil pushers is some kind of tank. Hopefully it’s something good. You’re not sure what good is, but you’ll figure it out later.

“So, what’s been going on with you, Ramirez?”

Ramirez shrugs. “Not much.”

You nod. “Cool.”



Wow, Ramirez wasn’t much of a talker. You say, “Enjoy dinner last night?”

Ramirez nods. “Yeah, it was good.”



Goddamn it, Ramirez. Sometimes people like to do small talk.

“So, Ramirez, you think we’ll find a tank in the Command Tower?”

“Anything’s possible.”

“Any type of flowers you like, Ramirez?”

Ramirez gives you a good glare at that. You hold up hands defensively. “Alrighty, touchy subject.”

With that in mind, you enter the ground floor (so to speak) of the Command Tower. The place is filled with administrators, pencil pushers, file filers, and all other manner of desk jockeys running around trying to get everything done before classes start tomorrow.

You walk up to the front desk, manned by a very bored looking Junior.

“Good morning, my name is Gertrude Pool, Sophomore Class President,” you say. The Junior barely gives you a glance.

“Morning, something I can help you with?” she says.

“Yeah, we’re looking for tanks. You wouldn’t have happened to have seen one in the Command Tower anywhere?”

The Junior sighs. “This is a Command Tower. Not a Tank Hangar. We don’t have tanks. Not even a tankette could fit in through those doors.”

“It wouldn’t hurt to let us look though, Miss…” you look over the desk to see her nametag. “… Kate Knispel.”

Kate simply shrugs. “Meh, do what you like. I suppose if you’re very lucky you might find something of value in the filing cabinets like elbow grease and headlight fluid.”

You nod. “Eh, sure thing! Thanks.” You motion Ramirez to follow you to an elevator. “Alright Ramirez, time to start sweeping the Command Tower. Look through all the archive rooms, look through anything that might be big enough to fit a tank.”

She nods. “Alright.”

You get to the elevator and press the “call” button. Time for tank hunting. It’s like she said. Maybe you’ll get lucky. Maybe you’ll find something real heavy or something with a big gun. Maybe it’ll be a Maus or something.

The doors open. Revealing Alana Pinkerton and Irene O’Bannon, Hall Monitors.

“Hey!” says O’Bannon, “We were just looking for you!”

“I do something wrong?” you say as you step into the elevator, Ramirez in tow. Much to your frustration, Pinkerton and O’Bannon remain aboard.

Pinkerton shakes her head. “Nah nah.”

“Then why were you looking for me?”

O’Bannon says, “Fredendall wants us to tell you that she’s kinda pissed that you got her suspended for a month. Means she won’t be able to attend Homecoming.”

“She has my cellphone number, she can just tell me this stuff.”

Pinkerton shrugs. “Eh, I suppose she’s just being the passive-aggressive bitch she is. Of course I’m sure she’ll find some way to get back at you.”

O’Bannon smirks smugly. “Yeah, maybe she’ll have you thrown off the ship.”

“I have tanks. Any argument she has is invalid.”

Pinkerton nods. “Ah, right. Tankery thing. How’s thing working out for you?”

“Great. We’ll win the World Tournament, bring home the winnings and show Fredendall how much of bitch she is to everyone who isn’t her.”

O’Bannon chuckles. “You say that as if it’s gonna happen.”

“It will, I assure you. And I’ll rub your Scottish nose in it, Pinkerton,” you point at O’Bannon, “and your Irish nose in it too, O’Bannon.”



“You guys not getting off here?”

Pinkerton says, “We have to talk to someone on the top floor.”

You roll your eyes and select the top floor. Might as well start from there. All of you brace yourselves for the incoming awkwardness.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdJWZxPW45c



O’Bannon says, “I love this song.”

After an agonizing ten minutes on that elevator, you finally make it to the top floor of the Command Tower.

“Stay out of trouble, Pool,” says Pinkerton as she and O’Bannon leave you.

Ramirez looks at you. “They’re pretty scummy huh?”

“Pretty much, Ramirez.”

Ramirez nods. “Anyway, let’s get to work. We move fast, we’ll be done by lunch.”

“Yeah, get to it.”

The two of you quickly begin searching rooms. You open doors, peak in, nothing, close door repeat. After you clear the first floor, you run down the steps to the next one and repeat the entire process. There are a lot of floors in a Command Tower and a lot of rooms to check but how the fuck are you going to miss something that’s at least the size of a truck in the middle of rooms filled with filing cabinets and file monkeys.

As you get halfway through searching, you get a call on your cellphone.

“What’s up, Nancy?” Time for the legendary ability of multitasking for women.

“Just checking to see how are you, Lisa and myself are already on our way to the Museum, along with Kitten.”

“You bringing Kitten along?”

“I don’t see why not?”

You shrug. “I suppose. You guys wouldn’t have happened to have seen a tank there would you?”

“Well, we’ll wait on you once we get there.”

“Alright, thanks.”

You hang up. You briefly wonder how they managed to string Kitten along until you realized that tanks are indeed involved.

But back to searching.

You continue going floor to floor, room to room, checking and peeking for anything that looks vaguely like a tank. At one point, you almost get excited until you realize it was just a painting of a tank apparently from Lafayette’s heyday. Damn, that got you excited. You shut the door and immediately crash into that junior, Kate. Papers go flying everywhere.

“Found any tanks?” she asks, with just a little bit of sarcasm and contempt thrown in.

“So, you think you might be interested in Tankery then?”

“No.”



Huh.

“Oh,” you say. Now you suddenly feel incredibly awkward. “I don’t suppose I can convince you.”

Kate shakes her head. “I don’t have time for Tankery, and I honestly think it’s nothing but garbage and broken dreams, like another sport really. Like Tennis.”

You nod. “Alright.”

Kate gets her papers together, “Anyway, I got someplace to be. See ya.” She shoves past you, walking off down the hall.

Well, that could’ve gone better.

“Ramirez, you find anything?!” you shout down the hall.

“Nope!” was her response.

This was getting nowhere. You’re getting closer to ground level, your legs are starting to feel like gelatin, and you still haven’t found any tanks. You continue on, checking and checking, but still fruitless.

Finally, you make it back to ground level. Your legs simply give out from under you as you lie down on the cool hard floor. Ramirez comes down after you a few minutes later, apparently not fazed by today’s workout.

“Ramirez, find anything?” you ask.

“Nope. Looks like the Command Tower’s clear.”

You lean your head back, and see Kate at the front desk. She mouths a “told you so” and continues to go back to what she was doing.

“Ramirez, carry me please.”

Ramirez nods and immediately picks you up in a bridal carry. Those stairs were not fun for your legs, but at least you can say you didn’t skip leg day. Never skip leg day. Ramirez carries you out of the Command Tower and towards the Museum.

“Ramirez?”

“Yeah?”

“Why are you carrying me like this?”

“Are you afraid people might think we’re lesbians?”

“Kind of.”

“Well, too late now.”

Ramirez carries your tired ass towards the Museum entrance, a large tunnel resembling a subway station entrance. There, you meet Nancy, Lisa, and Kitten.

“Hey, Boss!” says Lisa. “Hey, Ramirez!”

You say, “Please tell me you have lunch.”

Nancy nods. “A couple of sandwiches, nothing really special. How’d the Command Tower go?”

“We didn’t find shit. Well besides a very mean tanknerd that doesn’t want to take Tankery.”

Nancy nods. “I see.” She hands you a sandwich like a good girl. You quickly take it and chew it to bits. Sweet mother mercy it’s HAM. You suddenly feel incredibly rejuvenated and thus you hop out of Ramirez’s bridal carry.

“GIRLS!” you shout. “LET’S GO TO THE MUSEUM!”

The girls all say their affirmatives.

Of course, you’re not entirely sure where you’re going to find a tank in a Museum, but, hey, stranger things have happened before.

Where do you want to start?

The five of you go on towards Founding and World War II.

The Museum today is not as crowded as it would be on weekends or on Shore Leave, so thankfully you have an easy time getting around. Founding and World War II is a large circular room big enough to fit 10 tanks, with a scale model of Lafayette Girls Academy in the center.

A tour guide is leading on some wary looking freshmen, so you decide to listen in.

“Lafayette Girls Academy was first founded alongside the Baron Von Steuben Military Academy in 1932, after a very controversial campaign to introduce schoolships as way to compete with other nation’s education systems in the midst of the Great Depression. Taking inspiration from Academyships in the past from nations like Rome, Lafayette for it’s time was the largest Academyship built until the 1960s.”

“When the War broke out, Lafayette and Baron Von Steuben were immediately drafted as mobile bases for the United States military. Lafayette served in the Pacific Theatre while Von Steuben served in the Atlantic.”

The tour guide motions to a large mural of a squadron of the venerable SBD Dauntless, flying above Lafayette Girls Academy. “Lafayette carried several dozen squadrons of the Dauntless dive bomber, many of which were instrumental to the victory at the Battle of Midway.”

“Finally, Lafayette was the ship that held the Surrender of Japan, where representatives of Japan signed their unconditional surrender, and ended World War II.”

Always nice to hear a good bit of history.

All of you decide to follow the tour group, figure it’ll make things easier on you.

You’re led into another large circular room, same as the last. With murals of Academyships sailing the deep blue sea and a SOMUA S35 in the center of the room.

“Past the war, Lafayette was returned as a school design to allow women to grow and learn by giving them more independence over contemporary schools of the day. As the years went on, Lafayette Girls Academy became one of the most prestigious schools to attend, even as the United States began building more Academyships and brought the count from 2, to 15 to the present day. The only nation that surpasses us in number of schoolships is Japan with 16.

“Lafayette maintained and still maintains a wide variety of extracurricular activity, such as language studies, JROTC, and until the 80s, Tankery and planefighting. Lafayette today still serves as one of the oldest Academyships still in service among the Academyships Committee.”

Cool beans, that SOMUA S35 looks great too.

“Uh, excuse me.” The tour guide looks past you. You ask, “What about this tank? Is it part of the exhibit.”

The tour guide looks at the tank, a bit bewildered. “You know,” she says, “we’ve had that tank here for quite some time and we’ve done some significant work to it. But it’s not actually part of the exhibit.”

Lisa says, “It’s not part of the exhibit?”

The tour guide shrugs. “It was here when I was first started working here, and nobody seemed to question it.”

Nancy looks over at you and says, “Shouldn’t Dory have seen this?”

Kitten says, “I suppose since it’s just here, they must have thought it was worthless.”

You nod. You point to the tank and look at the tour guide. “Would you mind if we acquired the tank for our purposes? We’re actually reviving Lafayette’s Tankery Program and it’d be great if we could have it.”

The tour guide shrugs. “Eh, speak to the manager, I’m sure he’ll let you have it.”

You look at Ramirez. “Ramirez?”

She quickly runs out of the room.

Yep, this tank was yours now.

> Academyships General

The final exhibit for today was Academyships General. Everything you need to know about Academyships but were afraid to ask about.

“There are currently 15 Academyships in the United States name in the Academyships Committee. These Academyships are built to be as self-sufficient as possible, drawing energy from every possible source such as wind, water, and solar plants. On every Academyship is a self-sustainable population, which can reach as many as a 100,000 people on some of the larger Academyships.”

“Each Academyship is assembled by blocks, which is each horizontal section of the ship is referred to as a Block, so you have Block A to Block B and so on.”

“Academyships are run by a majority of students in Naval Studies, they get free tuition in exchange for working 8 hour shifts under the watchful eye of advisors from the Merchant Marine, the U.S. Navy or the U.S. Coast Guard.”

The freshmen all take pictures of the various exhibits like model academyships, murals, and other pictures like any good D.C. tourist.

Now it was time to decide. Leave the Museum and go further hunting for tanks.

OR GO TO THE FUCKING GIFT SHOP.

TO THE GIFT SHOP

The four of you head in, and see all kinds of things worth purchasing even though you’ve probably bought everything for Griselda at one point. You’ve got your T-Shirts there, your backpacks there, your low-quality recorders over there, your model academyship kits over there.

“Oooh!” Nancy says, “they have lots of books on Academyships!”

Lisa says, “We live on an Academyship, I’m sure we already know a lot about them.”

Kitten says, “Do you?”

“… Noooo. But we will soon when we’re Seniors.”

Kitten looks over a cheap scale model of the Lafayette. “What do you think, Trudy? Anything worth buying?”

“Nah. But it’s always fun to look around!”

Kitten nods, putting the model back. “Of course.”

Nancy pouts, “You mean we’re not getting the books?”

You’re sad to say it, but, “No, Nancy, no books.”

She puts the books back, apparently a bit a disappointed.

Lisa asks, “You know, I just noticed. Where’s Ramirez?”

As if to signal her approach, the ground starts shaking. You hear the roar of an engine and the clunking of treads on hard ground. All of you look outside the gift shop to see Ramirez driving the S35. She pops the driver’s window open and says, “Lisa, you want to drive?”

Lisa, apparently a bit bewildered, says, “You seem to be doing fine.”

“Yeah, but then I realized I was in a tank on a ship the size of a small island ostensibly for educational purposes.”

Lisa looks at you, then simply shrugs, “Can’t beat that logic.”

Nancy asks, “Can it fit the five of us?”

Kitten says, “The S35 can only hold 3 so two of us will have to ride on top.” She looks at you and says, “You riding inside?”

> Outside, a real commander LEADS FROM THE OUTSIDE.

“Actually, I’ll ride outside. I’m not feeling like getting into a hot, sweaty, enclosed compartment with two other nubile young women of legal age in several states who haven’t seen a healthy man their age in days.”

Kitten nods. “Cool.” She looks around at the group. “Who are you gonna take with you?”

“Not it!” shouts Lisa.

“Not it!” shouts Nancy.

“No- fuck,” says Kitten. “I suppose I’ll go.”

You nod. “Lisa, take this tank to the sports warehouse.”

“Righto, Boss!”

Everyone mounts up. You and Kitten hang on for dear life behind the turret. Lisa climbs in along with Nancy. There’s an audible bump and an “ow” from Nancy as she now figures out that the initial S35 tanks didn’t actually come with a cupola hatch.

Lisa starts the tank up, speeding off down the hall. Good thing the Museum isn’t crowded today.

The S35 roars up the stairs and out onto the street.

Kitten looks over at you. “How are things going with you, Trudy?”

“Oh, all kinds of good things!” you have to seriously shout over the engine. “Fredendall’s been suspended! We got ourselves a tank that doesn’t seem to be a complete piece of shit! Things are really looking up!”

“You ready for school!?” shouts Kitten.

“What!?”

“I said are you ready for school!?”

You nod violently. “Sure I am! Oh shit that’s right! We still gotta plan a booth!”

You duck down to the turret hatch and open it up. Inside is Nancy, rubbing the top of her head. She looks at you. “Need something, President?”

“We need to figure something out for the Club Fair tomorrow! Got any ideas!?”

Nancy nods. “Yeah! We’ve basically got three options to choose from!”

“We can do a small booth! Only 500 dollars for the space! It’ll be small and people will pass it up but it’s definitely cheap!”

“We can also do a medium booth! Larger, we can take one of our crews with us to help advertise too! Maybe even a tank or two! It’ll be about 1,000 dollars!”

“And then we can do a large booth! That’ll be 1,500 dollars but we’ll have a larger space for as many of our crews to be there as we want, and for some of our tanks, up to three!”

“And if you don’t want to spend money, you can just do flyers!”

“All in all, what matters most is we get donations from the students! We might also be able to recruit a crew or two depending on which booth we use!”

Which do you want?

> Small booth. Only you and your staff will advertise. – 500 Dollars.
> Medium Booth. You, your staff, and a crew of your choice, with up to two tanks. – 1000 Dollars.
> Large booth. You, your staff, all of your crews, and up to three tanks. – 1500 Dollars.

500 dollars isn't really that much compared to our overall expenses, and we REALLY need the PR, I can't stress enough how important it would be for us to gain the support of the school on this. Especially since we've just resurrected it.
>>
>>27976379
> Large booth. You, your staff, all of your crews, and up to three tanks. – 1500 Dollars.
Sewing Club would want in on the action (clothes and accessories), and Aviation Club might want to advertise with their aircraft too and show of their restoration skills.

Although we'll need money to repair the Panther, this'll be an investment of sorts once word is out on the skills of the team and the cool stuff they can do.

Also, have Nancy on possible kitchen duty. The food would be an additional incentive.

“Large Booth, Nancy. We’re going all out for this!”

Nancy nods. “I’ll set everything up for you!”

You nod and close the turret hatch back up. Large booths were usually reserved for things like the Math Honor Society or the Sports Teams but hey, you were technically a sports team and you need those sweet monies and cash.

Suddenly, you hear sirens.

You look behind you. Oh goddamn it, it’s the Hall Monitors on their police bikes.

“Pull over!” one of them shouts.

You open the turret hatch. “Lisa! Pull over!”

Lisa looks back at you. “WHAT!?”

“PULL OVER!”

The S35 shoots right, nearly knocking you and Kitten off. Thankfully for you, the S35 manages to hit a total of nothing and you park without incident. Lisa kills the engine, thus allowing your ears some reprieve.

You look at the pair of Hall Monitors. Oh damn it, it’s Pinkerton and O’Bannon again.

Pinkerton walks up to the side of the tank, with O’Bannon taking the other side.

Pinkerton asks, “This tank belong to you?”

Most likely if her parent's were bank rolling the ship they have no interest in doing so after she graduates. She probably ruled like a queen here because her parent's money literally kept the place afloat. She has no interest either way if the school stays around once she's gone.

“Yes, Pinkerton. It belongs to us. The Museum gave it to us because it wasn’t even an exhibit, it was just sitting there.”

Pinkerton nods. “Where’s the driver?” You motion over to the side hatch. Pinkerton swings it open and looks over at Lisa. “Yeah, I’m gonna need license and registration.” Pinkerton shouts over the tank. “O’Bannon! Take a look inside if you will!”

“Sure thing, Boss!” shouts O’Bannon. She opens the other side hatch. “Alright, punks, everyone out.”

Well, this isn’t going well. Ramirez and Nancy leave the tank, with Lisa remaining inside. O’Bannon swears and curses in Irish everytime she bumps her head on something, which is a lot considering it’s a small tank.

Pinkerton looks over Lisa’s Driver’s permit with the intensity of a thousand suns.

You decide not to interrupt.

Pinkerton makes a slight grunting sound then reaches into the tank and hands Lisa her Driver’s permit back. She rubs her hands together and looks at you with that annoying stoic expression she always holds. “Everything appears to be in order.”

You nod. That’s a relief.

O’Bannon climbs out onto Pinkerton’s side. “Now, we oughta tell you something! You can’t be out and about driving tanks like some fecking historic revisionist!” She wags her finger at you. “You just happened to going past the speed limit of 35 miles an hour!”

Shit, were you really going that fast? This tank is better than you thought.

“Yeah. We could ticket you now for about 500 dollars,” says Pinkerton. Oh god noooo. “But since we’re so nice. We’ll just bump it down to 250 and we can all be-“

A streak rushes past Pinkerton and O’Bannon. A loud “FUCK YOU PIIIIIIIIGS!” can be heard.

Pinkerton and O’Bannon look in that direction. “Mother of god.”

O’Bannon says, “It’s fecking Bolter again.”

Pinkerton and O’Bannon race back to their motorbikes. “Forget this ticket shit! Let’s go!” The sirens blare again as Pinkerton and O’Bannon race off after Bolter. Nancy and Ramirez walk around the side, curious, and Lisa looks out the turret hatch.

“Who the fuck was that?”

Nancy taps her chin. “I think that was Joanna Bolter.”

Lisa asks, “Who?”

“Joanna Bolter. She works for the Red Ball Courier Services. She and I actually had the same Gym period together last year. She really likes speed.”

You nod. “Alright then. Let’s not stick around. Get back in the tank.”

Lisa, Nancy, and Ramirez take their places and soon the S35 is off again.

Gotta say though, Bolter coming in like that was really fucking convenient.

You arrive at the Sports Warehouse. The Dragon Wagon and the Bergepanzer III are situated outside. Ramirez quickly climbs out of the tanks and unlocks the loading doors to the warehouse, letting the S35 inside.

The Sports Warehouse is pretty much empty of a lot of actual sports equipment. Ever since Lafayette shut down most of it’s sports programs save for Lacrosse, Basketball, and Tennis, much of it was empty enough to fit at least a dozen tanks. Including the Gee Bee Racer plane. Lisa parks the S35 down next to the M4 Sherman and the new Competition Spec. KV-1S.

Kitten looks over at the other new arrival, the Panther Ausf. D.

“Huh. That Panther looks really shit,” she says.

“Well, in the right hands and with the right parts, that Panther will really be something.”

Kitten shrugs. “I suppose.”

Nancy, Lisa, and Ramirez climb out of the S35. You ask them, “How was it in there?”

Lisa says, “Cramped, hot, my ass felt like it was going to fall off, and I honestly don’t think we were going 35.”

“Road speed on a S35 is 25,” says Kitten, “but I suppose SS were just bullshitting us.”

“Really?” you say. That’s actually pretty disappointing.

Nancy scratches her chin, “So, we’re now at 7 tanks?”

Hello, Gertrude. Lisa gave me your email so I can contact you about a couple of things. It’s mostly about modifications to your tanks.

I can modify your tanks within historical and Tankery regulations for a nominal fee. Don’t worry, it’s usually only a couple hundred dollars depending on how drastic the modification. Say, if you want appliqué armor applied to your Sherman, that would be about 500 dollars.

Another thing, I’ve seen a lot of amateur teams make this mistake a lot. Prototypes.

Don’t get them.

They’re expensive to maintain, they’re usually complete shit, suffice to say they were prototypes for a reason. Most of them are one-off so they’re usually worth hundreds of thousands, if not millions. So please don’t make the same mistake others make and blow your budget on prototypes.

Just thought you should know.

Hi, my name’s Amanda Levy, my friends call me Ace.

Your Principal contacted my Headmaster, and he contacted me saying that your school recently revived your Tankery program. I’d like congratulate you on taking Tankery, it’s a wonderful art practiced by women all over the world. I’m no exception at all.

My Academyship, the Robert A. Heinlein Military Academy is actually going to be docking at Casablanca at around the same time your ship is. I don’t know when exactly, but it’ll definitely be sometime in late September. I understand you’re also looking to enter in the World Tournament, but you’re going to need a general match history first. We can provide that by totally kicking your ass.

Just kidding, we’ll go easy on you.

Attached are my contact details, contact me later if you got some questions for me.

“Ace” Levy


Huh. She seemed nice.

Lisa walks out of the shower, sighing in relief. “I feel positively recharged now!”

“Great!” you say.

Kitten says, “Well technically, the Sherman’s probably faster than the S35 so you might get a bit of speed from it.”

“What?”

“I forgot to buy school supplies.”

Ramirez says, “I already bought ‘em for you. I knew you’d forget so I figured why not.”

You raise an eyebrow. That was unexpected. “Oh, thanks, Ramirez.”

“Don’t mention it.”

Lisa says, “Ah, right. School starts tomorrow. That’s gonna suck.”

“Oh relax,” you say. “At least Fredendall’s suspended. Means we won’t have to put up with her bitchtit attitude in the hallways.”

Everyone nods in agreement.

“Dinners ready!” says Nancy.

Aww yiss.

> END DAY

That's where we'll end it for today. I apologize for starting later than usual. I will return Friday at the usual time of 3:00 PM hopefully with no delays.

Overall, a slow day in which we got some world building and a new tank. Not bad. Kind of hoped we finished looking for all the tanks so we can focus on gaining money but that fine.

I vote for the sewing club to handle the Souma
